Ashrei
Overview
Saying Ashrei as part of tefillah is mentioned already in the Bavli. In Bavli Berakhot it says that one should say Tehilla LeDavid three times a day. From the Bavli it's not clear that it has to be said in Pesukei DeZimra although it's found in all siddurim as part of Pesukei DeZimra. In addition, there is another Bavli in Shabbat which says that in Pesukei DeZimra one should finish the Hallel, which is taken to mean Tehillim.
In the Geonim and Rishonim time everyone said Tehillim 145-150. But it's possible that in the beginning they only Tehillim 145 and 150 and later the chapters in the middle were added.
The verses that were said around Tehillah LeDavid were not as fixed. Although saying Ashrei before Tehillah LeDavid is mentioned already in the Bavli, some people added other Ashrei verses. "ואנחנו נברך י-ה" is not found explicitly in the Bavli but was said at least from the time of the Geonim.
Introduction
In Shacharit we say the last few chapters of Tehillim, chapters 145-150 more commonly known as Ashrei and הללוי-ה. In addition to the those six chapters of Tehillim we add a couple of verses around chapter 145. Before Tehillah LeDavid we add two verses: Tehillim 84:5 - "אשרי יושבי ביתך" and Tehillim 144:15 (the verse right before Tehillah LeDavid) - "אשרי העם שככה לו". After Tehillah LeDavid we add a verse from Tehillim 115:18 "ואנחנו נברך י-ה". Why do we add these verses and why do we say these mizmorim?
